    Isaiah 6 is actually one of the places in the Bible where angels get a description:

    Above him were seraphim, each with six wings: With two wings they covered their faces, with two they covered their feet, and with two they were flying.

    So: too many wings, no face, and we can’t tell whether this thing has feet.

    It is only in Revelation and Ezekiel that anything is described as being covered in eyes. In Revelation (a pretty whacky book) they are described as “living creatures”, but some aspects of their description suggests they are supposed to be seraphim.

      no face, and we can’t tell whether this thing has feet.

      To me, the description implies that it does have a face and feet.
